Now I am excited for new games again. Especially with Nintendo's recent announcements. Now we are finally moving forward in the Metroid story line with Other M, which takes place sometime after Super Metroid. A blend of cinematic glory, 2D-3D gameplay, and even some dialogue from Samus. This game is looking up to be great.

But their failure to explain several key moves and the general sense that the only way to accomplish things is by button mashing... it just ruins things. Also, I can't half-charge my blaster which is irritating. And when I go to turn around to attack enemies behind me, Samus just decides to merrily march into the group and take massive damage. :|

Is it too much to ask that once, just once, a female character can go through a trauma, deal with it in an orderly and realistic fashion, and come out stronger for it instead of being reduced to a blubbering wreck who needs a big strong man to save her?
